Gotta have this, mmm it sounds yummy Fig Fudge - Morgado de Figos do
Algarve
Yield: 1 Batch
1/2 lb dried figs
1/2 lb ground almonds
2 oz cocoa powder
1 ts cinnamon
1 grated rind of 1 lemon
1/2 lb granulated sugar fluid ounces water
Mince the figs finely or put them through a food processor.
Assemble
all the rest of the dry ingredients, except for the sugar, in a
mixing bowl. Combine the sugar and water in a heavy saucepan.
Bring
to the boil, stirring only until the sugar is dissolved. Then boil
without stirring for a minute or two, just until it has thickened
and
is slightly reduced. Remove from the heat and beat in the
remaining
ingredients. The mixture will be very stiff. Return to the heat
and
cook gently until it is slightly shiny and comes away from the
sides
and bottom of the pan in a mass. This only takes a few minutes.
Pat
into an 8-inch cake tin or shallow dish. Allow it to cool, then
cut
into small squares and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
May your Christmas Dreams always be filled with Magic
